keśāntaḥ ṣoḍaśe varṣe brāhmaṇasya vidhīyate) | rājanyabandhor dvāviṃśe vaiśyasya dvyadhike mataḥ ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
(The ceremony called) Keranta (clipping the hair) is ordained for a Brāhmaṇa in the sixteenth year (from conception); for a Kshatriya, in the twenty-second; and for a Vaiśya, two (years) later than that.
